Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 223 Qin Huairu swears an oath

"You don't have to worry about this at all. You can probably save [-] to [-] percent, but the installation is a technical job. If it's not installed properly, accidents may happen, and people may get burned if they don't do it properly."

Uncle Niu was silent. Zhu Xuefeng's family hired someone to do the job, and they were professionals. As a fitter, I had no experience, so I really had no idea.

"Uncle Niu, I have an idea. Do you think this will work? Maybe I can make some odd money."

Uncle Niu looked at Zhu Xuefeng and nodded repeatedly.

"Xiao Feng, you have a good idea. How about I try this method first?"

After reaching an agreement with Uncle Niu, the two returned to school.

There is still something new in the New Year, at least the atmosphere in the school is very lively. Various propaganda and posters are plastered all over the campus bulletin boards, but the students are obviously more concerned about learning. The school's study style is really good.

"Hey, you came back so early. The two of us didn't stay long. We thought we wouldn't be back until tomorrow morning."

"Come on, you can't eat the grapes. They're so sour. Rang Rang, such a big man, keeps getting in the way."

"The sixth child is so bad, the boss, he scolds you."

"Gungun, don't sow discord. You have already reviewed. Do you want me to test you..."

"Don't interrupt, Lao Liu, I think your scarf seems to be a new one. It's not the same one during the day."

"Here we go again, read your book carefully. If you don't do well in the exam, you won't have the shame to go home for the New Year."

...

It was already dark outside, and the whole courtyard slowly became quiet. The lights in Zhu's house were still on, and laughter occasionally came from inside, which formed a very disharmonious contrast with the lifelessness of the middle courtyard.

It was a bit cold now, and the heating in the big yard was not very good. Besides, heating alone was too wasteful, so Zhu Xuefeng just slipped home.

It just so happened that He Yuyu came back with something to do, so they got together and started drinking again. When the day got cold, I unconsciously wanted to drink to warm myself up. There were too few heated places in the school, and I felt completely freezing after spending the whole day there.

"Why did I see someone carrying a wooden bed into your courtyard when I came back today?"

Silly Zhu took a small sip to himself and spoke a little dullly.

"Isn't this "Yi Qi Yi Qi"? I guess it will be either tonight or tomorrow."

Zhu Xuefeng suddenly realized that according to custom, a critically ill person must change his bed before he dies. In fact, changing his bed is for the sake of future generations, so as to avoid diaphragm reaction. It seems to be really quick.

"Brother Zhuzi, didn't I ask you to help?"

"That's not true. I think their family hired someone to make arrangements."

Zhu Xuefeng nodded, but he was a little surprised that the Jia family still had money to hire people. They hadn't run out of money for a few months. Could it be that the first master had taken action again.

"Brother Zhuzi, have you made any progress with your Tan family cuisine? I haven't been sitting at home for such a long time, and I haven't seen you talk about it."

Silly Zhu obviously became energetic, and his little eyes lit up a lot.

"Brother, don't tell me. I actually found their home. I also saw Lou Bancheng's daughter you mentioned from a distance. Hey, she looks quite energetic."

Look at He Yuyu who is listening attentively.

"Of course, she's still a little worse than my sister. She seems to be a lively person. She talks to people and always smiles."

"The one you like, don't always make excuses for me. I won't stop you. You can't flatter me."

He Yuyu said angrily, and it seemed that although he didn't object, he didn't support it either.

"You didn't go up to chat for a while? You just watched from a distance. How could this happen? No wife is watching. We have to communicate, so don't we have to take the initiative to go up and chat."

Silly Zhu scratched his ears in embarrassment and looked up at Zhu Xuefeng.

"Brother, I think this matter is quite unreliable. I'm not that kind of person. If you ask me to take the initiative to talk to a young girl and a young wife, I can't get rid of it." Zhu Xuefeng really wanted to ask, what are you doing in the courtyard? Whatever works.

"No one can help you with this matter. Why don't you wait until the New Year and beg Mrs. Song again and ask her to help you connect and build bridges."

"I think it's okay. Sister-in-law Song is quite nice. Even though she scolded me last time, wasn't it true that what she did was inappropriate? I'll apologize to her tomorrow. Yes, that's it."

"That's right, hurry up sooner rather than later, the sooner the better."

Zhu Xuefeng pushed hard to add fuel to the flames, fearing that Silly Zhu would back down, so he started to fight first.

Even He Yuyu smiled when he saw Zhu Xuefeng looking anxious for his brother.

Silhu seemed to see hope for a moment, and drank another drink happily...

...

According to what Mr. Tian Tian said today, Jia Dongxu is either tonight or tomorrow, and the atmosphere in the Jia family has suddenly changed. Jia Zhang is no longer in the mood to lie on the kang.

In the side room, he was listening to the noise outside against the partition. Jia Dongxu had been moved to the wooden bed and had woken up unexpectedly just now.

A pair of eyes that had been deeply sunken and had been dull since returning home suddenly burst into light. At this moment, Mrs. Jia and Zhang thought that her son had improved greatly and dreamed that her son would get better.

However, Qin Huairu sent her to the side room, saying that Dongxu had something to explain and asked her to wait. Now she was very anxious and didn't know what her son was talking about. Her voice was very low and she couldn't hear clearly at all. She only heard her daughter-in-law. sobbing quietly.

"Daughter-in-law, I've been through a lot of trouble for you these days... Ahem, don't look at me being drowsy..."

"Actually, I understand everything and hear it clearly, but I just can't wake up, ahem."

Jia Dongxu had already run out of energy and had to slow down for a moment every time he spoke. Qin Huairu did not dare to interrupt, so she could only listen and sob quietly.

"You have been coming to our Jia family for these years. In fact, I am very happy...".

"But I didn't take you to live a good life for a day, and the burden on the family was heavy. Fortunately, you didn't mind it. We also have children, so we can live well."

Qin Huairu held Jia Dongxu's hand, which was already skinny and without any strength.

"I don't mind it. We are living a good life. Isn't this all good? You should get better too."

Jia Dongxu tilted his head hard and looked at Qin Huairu.

"I know myself that it won't get better. Don't lie to yourself... I've been thinking a lot these days. I haven't done well, and... I've also done a lot of stupid things."

His life was replaying rapidly in front of Jia Dongxu's eyes. He was happy, proud, disappointed, helpless, indulgent, and autistic. The most proud and highlight moment was marrying the woman in front of him. It was a pity that he had to leave. I really couldn't bear it.

"I am too selfish, maybe I learned it from my mother... I understand now that it is too late to regret..."

A drop of tear flowed from Jia Dongxu's eyes, and it couldn't fall down for a long time. After struggling for a while, it rolled back into his eye socket.

"I can't change my selfishness. You have to promise me to let me be selfish one last time."

Qin Huairu nodded, wiped away tears, and listened quietly.

"I promise, I promise whatever you say."

"I'm leaving. After I leave, you have to promise me not to find another man, not any man. You have to give birth to the child and raise the three of them. Otherwise, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost. .”

Qin Huairu was confused for a while. This was to explain her own affairs, and she asked herself to send her mother-in-law in to explain it later. She just explained this to herself. They all said that her words were good even if she was about to die.

Jia Dongxu said so much in one breath, and now he was out of breath. The breath in his throat was unstable and he made a whirring sound.

"You agree, you have to...swear, swear quickly...".

A pair of sunken eyes were very scary. Qin Huairu felt cold all over when being stared at, as if he was being seen through. He could only lower his head and swear in a low voice.
